← ScienceWhich risk increases significantly at high flow rates in chemical reactors?
A)Increased corrosion wall thinning rates✓
B)Diminished reactant mixing and yield
C)Reduced heat transfer thermal runaway
D)Elevated product selectivity deviations
💡 Explanation
Increased flow generates turbulence which then accelerates mass transfer; therefore corrosion is intensified because this process enhances the contact between corrosive agents and reactor surfaces, rather than diffusion or product yield.
